40 students
12-A
18-B
40-12=28
28-18=10
10/40 did not vote.
25% did not vote
10 is one fourth of 40
fourth of 100% is 25%

-14, -6, 2, 0,...<br> Is it geometric

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

No it is not.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reason.

For geometric: common ratio r should be equal

r = T2/T1 = T3/T2 but is not true here as -6/-14 is not equal to 2/-6

Answer:

The answer is the option B

$-4,-14$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form $ax^{2} +bx+c=0$ is equal to

$x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$x^{2}+18x+81=25$

$x^{2}+18x+56=0$

so

$a=1\\b=18\\c=56$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-18(+/-)\sqrt{18^{2}-4(1)(56)}} {2(1)}$

$x=\frac{-18(+/-)\sqrt{100}} {2}$

$x=\frac{-18(+/-)10} {2}$

$x1=\frac{-18+10} {2}=-4$

$x2=\frac{-18-10} {2}=-14$
